Answer:

4.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is there is 12 inches in 1 foot.

48 inches=4 feet.

You are left with 6 inches which is half a foot.

4.5 feet is your answer.

For this case we must do a conversion. By definition we have to:

1 foot is equivalent to 12 inches

So, making a rule of three we have:

1 foot -------------> 12 inches

x --------------------> 54 inches

Where "x" represents the number of feet equivalent to 54 inches.

[tex]x = \frac {54 * 1} {12}\\x = 4.5[/tex]

Thus, 54 inches equals 4.5 feet.

4.5 feet
